Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Is Your Home Wi-Fi Actually Secure - Or Just Working Most people set up their home network once, forget about it, and assume everything is fine. But 'working' isn't the same as 'secure.' Every smart bulb, security camera, and guest phone on your network is a potential entry point - and without the right controls, one compromised device can expose everything else you own.Lock Down Your Home Network is the hands-on guide that bridges the gap between a basic router setup and real, measurable network security - without requiring an IT degree or enterprise-grade hardware.Author Kellan Stroud cuts through the jargon to deliver practical, step-by-step strategies that any tech-savvy homeowner can implement. You'll learn how to think about your network the way a security professional does: not as a single flat space where every device trusts every other device, but as a series of deliberate, controlled zones - each with its own rules, visibility, and limits.Inside, you'll discover how to: - Segment your network with VLANs - Create separate 'rooms' for your trusted devices, IoT gadgets, guest users, and work equipment so a compromised smart thermostat can never touch your laptop or NAS.- Build a deny-by-default firewall - Stop relying on hope. Learn how to block everything by default and open only the specific doors you choose, with rules that are easy to audit and maintain.- Take control of device identity - Use DHCP reservations, hostnames, and device inventories so you always know what's on your network - and spot intruders fast.- Filter DNS at the network level - Block malicious domains, ad trackers, and unwanted telemetry before they even reach your devices, using lightweight tools you can run locally.- Set up monitoring that actually matters - Ditch the noise. Learn which logs to keep, which alerts to trust, and how to build simple dashboards that surface real threats without crying wolf.- Handle modern challenges - From MAC address randomization to encrypted DNS bypass attempts, this book covers how modern devices try to evade your controls - and how to stay one step ahead.- Secure remote access the right way - Replace dangerous port forwarding with WireGuard or OpenVPN and access your home network safely from anywhere.- Protect against firmware and supply chain risks - Understand when to trust a device update, when to be skeptical, and how to reduce exposure from the hardware itself.Each chapter includes practical tests you can run to verify your defenses are actually working - not just configured on paper. You'll find checklists, runbooks, and recovery playbooks so that when something goes wrong, you're responding in minutes, not hours.Whether you're a developer, IT hobbyist, or simply someone who takes their digital privacy seriously, this book gives you the knowledge and tools to turn your home network from a liability into a genuinely hardened, observable, and controllable environment.Your network, under control - starting today.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Your home network is either working for you, or against you. This book shows you how to make it work for you.Most home networks are a chaotic tangle of routers, smart bulbs, laptops, security cameras, and guest devices all sharing the same open connection, one compromised gadget away from exposing everything you own. Build an Enterprise-Grade Home Network changes that. This is the practical playbook for bringing real network security, privacy, and performance into your home without a dedicated IT team or a corporate budget.Written for technically curious homeowners, IT professionals, and privacy-conscious families, this guide walks you through the same frameworks used to protect enterprise environments - zero trust architecture, network segmentation, identity-aware access, and infrastructure automation - and translates them into weekend projects you can actually finish.You'll start by building a solid foundation: mapping your existing devices, setting realistic goals, and grabbing quick wins - encrypted DNS, guest VLANs, and traffic prioritization - that deliver measurable results in an afternoon. From there, you'll go deeper into the architecture that separates resilient networks from fragile ones.Inside, you'll discover: Zero Trust at home - how to stop trusting devices by default and start verifying every connection, even inside your own wallsNetwork segmentation and microperimeters - isolate IoT gadgets, work machines, media devices, and guests so a compromised camera can never reach your personal filesAdvanced firewalling and traffic inspection - stateful inspection, deep packet inspection, IDS/IPS setup, and behavior-based quarantine, explained without the jargon overloadPrivacy-first routing - encrypted DNS (DoH/DoT), VPN strategies for whole-network vs. per-device use, tracker blocking, and ad filtering that protects every device automaticallySelf-hosting without the risk - run Plex, Nextcloud, dashboards, and home automation servers with reverse proxies, identity-aware access, and kill-switch loggingWi-Fi 6, 6E, and 7 - real-world tuning - access point placement, channel width optimization, mesh vs. controller deployments, and band steering for actual speed gainsInfrastructure as code - manage your network like a professional with Git-based configs, Ansible automation, and disaster recovery playbooks that restore your setup in minutesRed teaming your own network - safely simulate compromised IoT devices, phishing scenarios, and lateral movement attacks to find weaknesses before attackers doEvery chapter is built around what you can actually do, not theory. You'll get segmentation templates, firewall rule patterns, VPN decision frameworks, and incident response workflows - all designed to be implemented on real hardware in a real home.Whether you're protecting a remote work setup, locking down a house full of smart devices, or simply tired of trusting your ISP's default router, this book gives you the tools to build a network that's fast, private, and genuinely secure.Stop hoping your network is safe. Start knowing it is. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.…
